Ex-swing state MO became Republican over the past decade, but Democrats seek to reverse trend as midterms near

Missouri's top race is between Eric Schmitt and Trudy Busch Valentine for a U.S. Senator seat. The state is requiring residents to have voter identifications in this year's election.

Valentine’s campaign catchphrase was "nobody’s senator but yours," and she slammed Schmitt for voting as a state senator to allow foreign ownership of farmland and over his support for the state’s ban on abortion.

Missouri was once a swing state but has become solidly Republican over the past decade. Still, Valentine had plenty of money to spend — she’s the daughter of the late longtime Anheuser-Busch chairman, August Busch Jr.
